Daniel Serafini, a former MLB pitcher, was convicted of first-degree murder for the shooting death of his father-in-law, Robert Gary Spohr, in 2021. The attack was financially motivated, linked to a $1.3 million dispute over a ranch renovation. Security footage showed Serafini entering the Spohr home and waiting for three hours before the shooting, which occurred with two children present. Wendy Wood, Spohr's wife, survived but died by suicide in 2023, impacted by the trauma. Sentencing is set for August 18, with Serafini facing a potential life sentence.
